A cherry grove is a mountain biome with similar terrain to meadows, albeit rarer. It is the only biome where cherry trees naturally generate.
Description
The cherry grove has the same shape as a meadow, differing only by vegetation. Just like in meadows, emerald ore can be found here, especially at higher altitudes, and both coal and iron ore are commonly found here. Infested blocks also naturally generate in cherry groves. Villages cannot generate here, but pillager outposts can. In Java Edition, unlike most Overworld biomes, sugar canes and pumpkin patches cannot generate here. This biome usually generates in the lower sides of some mountains but can also generate standalone in plateaus, mainly next to plains or sunflower plains and separated from meadows or flower forests by rivers.
Cherry groves are grasslands with grass, tall grass, and pink petals. The main environmental feature of the cherry grove are cherry trees identified by their pink leaves. Their leaves drop petal particles. Bee nests with bees generate somewhat commonly on the sides of cherry trees. The cherry trees can generate densely enough to create a cover of leaves (as upon maps).
While using bone meal on grass blocks in this biome, pink petals generate on the ground in place of small flowers.[1]
Mobs
